Description from the seller
Elliott Erwitt
Personal Best
In the 1990s, Erwitt exhibited an increasing number of images – many of which had never been publicly shown since their creation between the late 1940s and early 1950s – that firmly propelled him to the forefront of this revered period in artistic photography. These images reveal a deliberate violation of the photographic norms of the era – perfect pose, full tonal range, sharp image, traditional composition – combined with an existential and "no-compromise" love for America, imbued with the noir ambiance of the time that fascinated that generation of photographers. And, like his contemporaries, he strived without hesitation to create a bold and personal style. "Personal Best" collects many of these images and many others published for the first time.
